"Believe in Humanity" by Carole King

If you read the papers you may see
History in the making
Youll read what they say life is all about
They say its there for the taking
Yeah, but you should rally check it out
If you want to know whats shaking
But dont tell me about the things youve heard
Maybe Im wrong, but I want to believe in humanity

I know its often true - sad to say
We have been unkind to one another
Tell me how many times has the golden rule
Been applied by man to his brother
I believe if I realll looked at whats going on
I would lose faith I never could recover
So dont tell me about the things youve heard
Maybe Im wrong, but I want to believe in humanity.
